We're Back...

We got home from vacation on the Northern Pacific Coast last night around midnight. The two pups, Livia and Adriana, were so overjoyed to see each other that they wrestled, straight up smack-down style, until 3:00 AM. I was so tired I wanted to kill them, but it was too cute to stop so Mace and I just dealt with it until they played themselves out.

Unfortunately, they were back at it at 7:00 AM, after a measly four hour nap. It’s going to be hard when Livia finds her new home, but we’re focusing all our attention on the last few days the Magic 8 litter mates have together and not on the ones they won’t.

Glad to be back at the Farnival with my pack and foster dogs. Should be organized and posting about our adventures (which included an encounter with a black bear) by the end of the week.

Thanks for your patience y’all. And by the way, the puppy socialization experiment was amazing. Adriana, that puppy born in a bramble patch in the ghetto, made friends (both human and animal) from all over the country. She’s a smile-maker; just one glance of her dwarf-ish puppy face caused people to break out in grins, even me.
